Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、誘電体磁器組成物とそれを用いた磁器コンデンサ及びその製造方法に関し、特に、高周波数帯域において誘電体損失が小さく、しかも、安定した特性を有し、さらに、低温での焼成を実現することで電極材料に銅（Ｃｕ）、タングステン（Ｗ）等の卑金属、あるいはカーボン、グラファイト等の炭素系物質を用いることが可能になり、その結果、製造コストの大幅な低下、製品のコストダウンが可能になる誘電体磁器組成物とそれを用いた磁器コンデンサ及びその製造方法に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来、小型かつ大容量のコンデンサとして、セラミックスの誘電特性を利用したセラミックコンデンサが知られている。このセラミックコンデンサは、ルチル型のＴｉＯ2、ペロブスカイト型のＭｇＴｉＯ3、ＭｇＴｉＯ3、ＣａＴｉＯ3、ＳｒＴｉＯ3等の誘電体材料を単体、もしくはこれらを組み合わせることにより、所望の特性を有するコンデンサとされる。
【０００３】
セラミックコンデンサは、単層型と積層型に分類される。
単層セラミックコンデンサは、上述した材料の粉末を加圧成形して、例えば、ペレット（円板状）、ロッド（円筒状）、チップ（角型状）等の成形体とし、この成形体を大気中１２００〜１４００℃の温度で焼成して焼結体とし、この焼結体の表裏両面に電極を形成することにより得ることができる。
【０００４】
また、積層セラミックコンデンサは、上述した材料の粉末と有機バインダー及び有機溶剤を混練してスラリーとし、このスラリーをドクターブレード法によりシート状に成形し脱脂してグリーンシートとし、このグリーンシート上にＰｔやＰｄ等の貴金属からなる電極を印刷した後、これらのグリーンシートを厚み方向に重ね合わせ加圧して積層体とし、この積層体を大気中１２００〜１４００℃の温度で焼成することにより得ることができる。
【０００５】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、上述した従来のセラミックコンデンサにおいては、電気的特性に優れた緻密な焼結体を得るためには、１２００〜１４００℃という高温度での焼成が必要になる。
特に、積層セラミックコンデンサにおいては、電極材料に卑金属を用いた場合、この卑金属が焼成時に酸化してセラミック層の間に高抵抗層を形成してしまうために、高温度でも安定なＰｔやＰｄ等の貴金属材料を用いる必要があり、低コスト化が難しいという問題点があった。
【０００６】
また、マイクロ波等の高周波数領域に適用する場合、誘電体損失が小さいものが望まれており、温度特性、品質係数（Ｑ）等の電気的特性に対してもより高特性かつ高信頼性のものが求められている。しかしながら、現在の誘電体材料ではこれらの要求に答えられるまでには至っていない。
【０００７】
本発明は、上記の事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、高周波数帯域における誘電体損失が小さく、しかも、安定した特性を有し、さらに、低温での焼成を実現することで卑金属や炭素系物質を電極材料に用いることができ、その結果、製造コストの大幅な低下、すなわち製品のコストダウンを図ることができる誘電体磁器組成物とそれを用いた磁器コンデンサ及びその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。
【０００８】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するために、本発明は次のような誘電体磁器組成物とそれを用いた磁器コンデンサ及びその製造方法を提供した。
すなわち、請求項１記載の誘電体磁器組成物は、ＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1
-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）からなる主組成物に、ＭｎＯ2を０．０５〜１５重量％、Ｂｉ2Ｏ3、ＰｂＯ、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上を０．００１〜５重量％、ガラス組成物を０．５〜１５重量％添加してなることを特徴としている。
【０００９】
この誘電体磁器組成物では、ＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）からなる主組成物に、ＭｎＯ2を０．０５〜１５重量％、Ｂｉ2Ｏ3、ＰｂＯ、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上を０．００１〜５重量％、ガラス組成物を０．５〜１５重量％添加したことにより、高い比誘電率、良好な温度特性、高い品質係数が実現可能になる。その結果、マイクロ波等の高周波数領域における特性が安定化し、高周波数領域における信頼性が向上する。
【００１０】
ここで、Ｓｒのモル比を０．８以上（８０ｍｏｌ％以上）としたのは、０．８未満（８０ｍｏｌ％未満）では、９２５〜１０８０℃の低温で焼成した場合、焼結性が低下することにより、良好な焼結体が得られないためである。
また、Ｔｉのモル比を０．１以下（１０ｍｏｌ％以下）としたのは、０．１（１０ｍｏｌ％）を越えると、品質係数（Ｑ）が低下するとともに、温度特性が負に大きくなってしまうためである。
【００１１】
ＭｎＯ2は、低温焼成を可能とするために焼結助剤として添加するものであり、その添加量は０．０５〜１５重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．０５重量％未満では添加効果がなく、したがって、低温焼成において緻密な焼結体を得ることができず、また、１５重量％を越えると品質係数（Ｑ）が低下してしまうためである。
Ｂｉ2Ｏ3、ＰｂＯ、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上の低融点金属酸化物は、温度特性を改善するために添加するものであり、その添加量は０．００１〜５重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．００１重量％未満では温度特性の改善効果が得られず、また、５重量％を越えると品質係数（Ｑ）が低下するためである。
【００１２】
ガラス組成物は、９２５〜１０８０℃の低温焼成を可能とするために焼結助剤として添加するものであり、その添加量は０．５〜１５重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．５重量％未満では焼結助剤としての効果が無く、したがって、低温焼成ができず、その結果、比誘電率、温度特性、品質係数が低下するためであり、また、１５重量％を越えると品質係数（Ｑ）が低下するためである。
【００１３】
ガラス組成物としては、添加しても特性に悪影響を及ぼすことが無く、主組成物であるＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）とぬれ性が良く、しかも９２５〜１０８０℃の温度で軟化および／または溶融するガラスが好ましい。具体的には、ＺｎＯ−ＳｉＯ2系ガラス、Ｌｉ2Ｏ−Ａｌ2Ｏ3−ＳｉＯ2系ガラス等が好ましい。
【００１４】
請求項２記載の誘電体磁器組成物は、請求項１記載の誘電体磁器組成物において、前記主組成物に、ＳｉＯ2を０．０１〜５重量％、Ａｌ2Ｏ3を０．０１〜５重量％添加してなることを特徴としている。
【００１５】
ＳｉＯ2は、温度特性を改善するために添加するものであり、その添加量は０．０１〜５重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．０１重量％未満では温度特性の改善効果が得られず、また、５重量％を越えると品質係数（Ｑ）が低下するためである。
Ａｌ2Ｏ3は、品質係数（Ｑ）を改善するために添加するものであり、その添加量は０．０１〜５重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．０１重量％未満では品質係数（Ｑ）の改善効果が得られず、また、５重量％を越えると温度特性が低下するからである。
【００１６】
請求項３記載の誘電体磁器組成物は、請求項１または２記載の誘電体磁器組成物において、前記主組成物に、希土類酸化物を０．００１〜２重量％添加してなることを特徴としている。
【００１７】
希土類酸化物は、温度特性の改善のために添加するものであり、その添加量は０．００１〜２重量％が好ましい。その理由は、添加量が０．００１重量％未満では温度特性の改善効果が得られず、また、２重量％を越えると品質係数（Ｑ）が低下するためである。
【００１８】
希土類酸化物としては、主組成物であるＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）とぬれ性が良く、しかも粒界層に存在して焼結性を高めるものが好ましい。具体的には、Ｌａ2Ｏ3、ＣｅＯ2、Ｐｒ6Ｏ11、Ｎｄ2Ｏ3、Ｓｍ2Ｏ3、Ｄｙ2Ｏ3、Ｈｏ2Ｏ3、Ｅｒ2Ｏ3、Ｔｍ2Ｏ3、Ｙｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上を組み合わせたものが好ましい。
【００１９】
請求項６記載の磁器コンデンサは、請求項１ないし５のいずれか１項記載の誘電体磁器組成物からなる素子の両面に電極を形成してなることを特徴としている。
【００２０】
請求項７記載の磁器コンデンサは、請求項１ないし５のいずれか１項記載の誘電体磁器組成物からなるシート状の誘電体と、電極とを交互に積層してなることを特徴としている。
【００２１】
請求項８記載の磁器コンデンサは、請求項６または７記載の磁器コンデンサにおいて、前記電極を卑金属または炭素系物質としたことを特徴としている。
【００２２】
この磁器コンデンサでは、請求項１ないし５のいずれか１項記載の誘電体磁器組成物を用いたことにより、高周波数帯域における誘電体損失が小さく、安定した特性となる。これにより、特に高周波数帯域における信頼性が向上する。
また、前記誘電体磁器組成物を用いることにより、９２５〜１０８０℃の低温で焼成することが可能となる。その結果、内部電極に安価な卑金属または炭素系物質を用いて製造コストを低減することが可能になる。
【００２３】
前記卑金属としては、導体としての特性を有し、しかも信頼性の高い金属、例えば、銅（Ｃｕ）、ニッケル（Ｎｉ）、タングステン（Ｗ）、モリブデン（Ｍｏ）等の金属から選択された１種、または２種以上を含む金属が好ましい。
また、炭素系物質としては、カーボン（無定形炭素）、グラファイト（石墨、黒鉛）、またはこれらの混合物が好ましい。
【００２４】
請求項９記載の誘電体磁器組成物の製造方法は、ＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）からなる主組成物に、ＭｎＯ2を０．０５〜１５重量％、Ｂｉ2Ｏ3、ＰｂＯ、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上を０．００１〜５重量％、ガラス組成物を０．５〜１５重量％添加した粉体を、成形してバルク状もしくはシート状の成形体とし、この成形体を９２５〜１０８０℃の温度で焼成することを特徴としている。
【００２５】
この誘電体磁器組成物の製造方法では、ＳｒxＢａ1-x（ＺｒyＴｉ1-y）Ｏ3（ただし、０．８≦ｘ≦１、０．９≦ｙ≦１）からなる主組成物に、ＭｎＯ2を０．０５〜１５重量％、Ｂｉ2Ｏ3、ＰｂＯ、Ｓｂ2Ｏ3より選択された１種または２種以上を０．００１〜５重量％、ガラス組成物を０．５〜１５重量％添加した粉体を、成形してバルク状もしくはシート状の成形体とし、この成形体を９２５〜１０８０℃の温度で焼成することにより、焼結助剤であるＭｎＯ2及びガラス組成物が〜１０８０℃の低温焼成過程において粒界層のぬれ性を向上させ、成形体中の粉末粒子同士を結合させるとともに、粉末粒子間の空隙を減少させて焼結を進行させる。これにより、９２５〜１０８０℃の低温で焼成した場合であっても、緻密で高強度の焼結体を得ることが可能になる。
【００２６】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a dielectric ceramic composition, a ceramic capacitor using the same, and a method for manufacturing the same, and in particular, has a low dielectric loss in a high frequency band, has stable characteristics, and is fired at a low temperature. By realizing this, it becomes possible to use a base metal such as copper (Cu) or tungsten (W) or a carbon-based material such as carbon or graphite as the electrode material. As a result, the manufacturing cost is greatly reduced and the product cost is reduced. The present invention relates to a dielectric ceramic composition capable of being down, a ceramic capacitor using the same, and a method of manufacturing the same.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, ceramic capacitors using the dielectric characteristics of ceramics are known as small-sized and large-capacity capacitors. This ceramic capacitor is a capacitor having desired characteristics by combining dielectric materials such as rutile type TiO 2 , perovskite type MgTiO 3 , MgTiO 3 , CaTiO 3 , SrTiO 3, or the like.
[0003]
Ceramic capacitors are classified into a single layer type and a multilayer type.
A single-layer ceramic capacitor is formed by pressing a powder of the above-mentioned material into a molded body such as a pellet (disk shape), a rod (cylindrical shape), or a chip (square shape). It can be obtained by firing at a temperature of 1200 to 1400 ° C. to form a sintered body and forming electrodes on both the front and back surfaces of the sintered body.
[0004]
The multilayer ceramic capacitor is made by kneading the above-mentioned material powder, an organic binder, and an organic solvent into a slurry. The slurry is formed into a sheet by a doctor blade method and degreased to obtain a green sheet. After printing an electrode made of a noble metal such as Pd or Pd, these green sheets are stacked and pressed in the thickness direction to form a laminate, and this laminate can be obtained by firing at a temperature of 1200 to 1400 ° C. in the atmosphere. it can.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, in the above-described conventional ceramic capacitor, firing at a high temperature of 1200 to 1400 ° C. is necessary in order to obtain a dense sintered body having excellent electrical characteristics.
In particular, in a multilayer ceramic capacitor, when a base metal is used as an electrode material, the base metal is oxidized during firing to form a high resistance layer between the ceramic layers. Therefore, stable Pt, Pd, etc. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce the cost.
[0006]
In addition, when applied to a high frequency region such as a microwave, a material having a small dielectric loss is desired, and higher electrical characteristics such as temperature characteristics and quality factor (Q) are more reliable and more reliable. Things are sought. However, current dielectric materials have yet to meet these requirements.
[0007]
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, has a low dielectric loss in a high frequency band, has stable characteristics, and further realizes firing at a low temperature to realize base metal and carbon. Disclosed is a dielectric ceramic composition, a ceramic capacitor using the same, and a method of manufacturing the same, which can use a system material as an electrode material, resulting in a significant reduction in manufacturing cost, that is, cost reduction of a product. For the purpose.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides the following dielectric ceramic composition, a ceramic capacitor using the dielectric ceramic composition, and a method for manufacturing the same.
That is, the dielectric ceramic composition of claim 1, wherein the, Sr x Ba 1-x ( Zr y Ti 1
-y ) O 3 (where 0.8 ≦ x ≦ 1, 0.9 ≦ y ≦ 1), 0.05 to 15% by weight of MnO 2 , Bi 2 O 3 , PbO, Sb One or two or more selected from 2 O 3 is added in an amount of 0.001 to 5% by weight and a glass composition is added in an amount of 0.5 to 15% by weight.
[0009]
In this dielectric ceramic composition, Sr x Ba 1-x ( Zr y Ti 1-y) O 3 ( however, 0.8 ≦ x ≦ 1,0.9 ≦ y ≦ 1) Main composition comprising, 0.05 to 15% by weight of MnO 2 , 0.001 to 5% by weight of one or more selected from Bi 2 O 3 , PbO and Sb 2 O 3 , and 0.5 to 15 of the glass composition By adding wt%, a high relative dielectric constant, good temperature characteristics, and a high quality factor can be realized. As a result, characteristics in a high frequency region such as a microwave are stabilized, and reliability in the high frequency region is improved.
[0010]
Here, the molar ratio of Sr is set to 0.8 or more (80 mol% or more). If it is less than 0.8 (less than 80 mol%), the sinterability deteriorates when fired at a low temperature of 925 to 1080 ° C. This is because a good sintered body cannot be obtained.
Moreover, the molar ratio of Ti is set to 0.1 or less (10 mol% or less). When 0.1 (10 mol%) is exceeded, the quality factor (Q) decreases and the temperature characteristics become negatively large. It is because it ends.
[0011]
MnO 2 is added as a sintering aid in order to enable low-temperature firing, and the addition amount is preferably 0.05 to 15% by weight. The reason is that if the addition amount is less than 0.05% by weight, there is no effect of addition, and therefore a dense sintered body cannot be obtained in low-temperature firing, and if it exceeds 15% by weight, the quality factor (Q) is increased. It is because it will fall.
One or more low melting point metal oxides selected from Bi 2 O 3 , PbO, and Sb 2 O 3 are added to improve temperature characteristics, and the added amount is 0.001 to 0.001. 5% by weight is preferred. The reason is that if the added amount is less than 0.001% by weight, the effect of improving the temperature characteristics cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 5% by weight, the quality factor (Q) is lowered.
[0012]
The glass composition is added as a sintering aid in order to enable low-temperature firing at 925 to 1080 ° C., and the addition amount is preferably 0.5 to 15% by weight. The reason is that if the addition amount is less than 0.5% by weight, there is no effect as a sintering aid, and therefore low-temperature firing cannot be performed, resulting in a decrease in relative permittivity, temperature characteristics, and quality factor. In addition, if it exceeds 15% by weight, the quality factor (Q) is lowered.
[0013]
The glass composition, without adversely affecting the even characteristics by adding a primary composition Sr x Ba 1-x (Zr y Ti 1-y) O 3 ( however, 0.8 ≦ x ≦ 1 0.9 ≦ y ≦ 1), which has good wettability, and is preferably softened and / or melted at a temperature of 925 to 1080 ° C. Specifically, ZnO—SiO 2 glass, Li 2 O—Al 2 O 3 —SiO 2 glass, and the like are preferable.

[0015]
SiO 2 is added to improve temperature characteristics, and the addition amount is preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight. The reason is that if the addition amount is less than 0.01% by weight, the effect of improving the temperature characteristics cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 5% by weight, the quality factor (Q) decreases.
Al 2 O 3 is added to improve the quality factor (Q), and the addition amount is preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight. The reason is that if the addition amount is less than 0.01% by weight, the effect of improving the quality factor (Q) cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 5% by weight, the temperature characteristics are deteriorated.
[0016]
The dielectric ceramic composition according to claim 3 is characterized in that in the dielectric ceramic composition according to claim 1 or 2, 0.001 to 2% by weight of a rare earth oxide is added to the main composition. It is said.
[0017]
The rare earth oxide is added to improve temperature characteristics, and the amount added is preferably 0.001 to 2% by weight. The reason is that if the added amount is less than 0.001% by weight, the effect of improving the temperature characteristics cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 2% by weight, the quality factor (Q) is lowered.
[0018]
Examples of the rare earth oxide, Sr x Ba 1-x ( Zr y Ti 1-y) O 3 ( however, 0.8 ≦ x ≦ 1,0.9 ≦ y ≦ 1) and the wettability is the main composition What is good and exists in a grain boundary layer and improves sinterability is preferable. Specifically, La 2 O 3 , CeO 2 , Pr 6 O 11 , Nd 2 O 3 , Sm 2 O 3 , Dy 2 O 3 , Ho 2 O 3 , Er 2 O 3 , Tm 2 O 3 , Yb 2 O 3 a combination of one or more selected from the preferred.
[0019]
A ceramic capacitor according to a sixth aspect is characterized in that electrodes are formed on both surfaces of an element made of the dielectric ceramic composition according to any one of the first to fifth aspects.
[0020]
According to a seventh aspect of the present invention, there is provided a ceramic capacitor characterized in that a sheet-like dielectric made of the dielectric ceramic composition according to any one of the first to fifth aspects and electrodes are alternately laminated.
[0021]
A ceramic capacitor according to an eighth aspect is the ceramic capacitor according to the sixth or seventh aspect, wherein the electrode is a base metal or a carbon-based material.
[0022]
In this ceramic capacitor, since the dielectric ceramic composition according to any one of claims 1 to 5 is used, dielectric loss in a high frequency band is small and stable characteristics are obtained. This improves the reliability especially in the high frequency band.
Further, by using the dielectric ceramic composition, it is possible to fire at a low temperature of 925 to 1080 ° C. As a result, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost by using an inexpensive base metal or carbon-based material for the internal electrode.
[0023]
